Legacy Manufacturing partners with garden and lifestyle expert P. Allen Smith to spread the word about Flexzilla®, their revolutionary garden hose
MARION, Iowa, May 20, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Legacy Manufacturing's Flexzilla® garden hose is the "official water hose" of mega-gardening guru P. Allen Smith (PAS) under an agreement recently signed by the two companies. As a PAS partner, Legacy Manufacturing will be a sponsor at the May 20-21 Garden2Blog14, an event Smith hosts annually for the 25 most influential garden bloggers, offering educational workshops, tours of his farm and product demonstrations. "This is huge, for us to have the chance to network with top garden bloggers and show them firsthand the benefits of our Flexzilla garden hose," said Matt Weems, Legacy Manufacturing VP. Flexzilla will also be featured through Smith's online and social media marketing campaigns, including Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram activities.
"I can be pretty rough on the hoses at my farm; I have acres of garden to keep up and I need my hoses to be heavy duty," Smith said. "Often, I've had hoses not even last a season because they're used so much. When I came across Flexzilla Garden Hoses a few years ago and found they could hold up under my farm's conditions, including fluctuating temperatures, sun and hard everyday use, I knew I wanted to switch over to them fulltime. The Flexzilla garden hose is extremely flexible and does not kink under water pressure, making chores around the farm much easier."
Partnering with P. Allen Smith, a respected and popular gardening & lifestyle expert, gives Legacy Manufacturing access to his audience of millions of serious gardeners. Smith partners with some of the industry's leading brands.
